Two old guys, who should know better, got tired of beating the fleet off the line only to be passed at the weather mark
One day at the the January Richmond Midwinters and on the first reach an executive decision was made - we needed a new boat to put the whipper snappers in their place
Kris and Kim at Henderson Boats agreed to build us a new Bieker 6 - These peeps are passionate about our boat - and doing and incredible build - we think she is beautiful
Gaze your eyes on newest International 14 - USA 1202 - "Blue Balls"

The US International 14 National Championships get underway at the Gorge and run by the Columbia Gorge Racing Association (CGRA)
Wind is on, clocking in the 20's every day and boats have been practicing. Epic venue that will challenge any boat, especially these super powered twin trapeze skiffs. Gorge is a bit of a trek for some, so it looks like the we'll have a dozen+ boats that made the trip plus a number of top boats. 10 races on the docket including a distance race which will dive deep into some even more windy territory. The 14's have a deep history and multiple trophies are up to be fought for including the 14 Founders Trophy (Nationals), President's (Distance), First Female, Avengers (for older boats), Windmasters (combined team age over 100), & the Gorge Speed Challenge (GSC).
The Gorge Speed Challenge (GSC) is sponsored by Henderson Boat Company - starts on the practice day and runs through the event - fasted sustained speed on the velocitek or other approved instrument... all rules and decisions are final and made by Hendo!
